Who's doing Fear and Loathing 2008 (and doing it well)?

stavrosthewonderchicken — Thu, 03 Jan 2008 21:00:23 -0800

So Hunter S Thompson's dead and I don't really know which writers to turn to, as the American election year gets underway, who can bring the mad skills, the savage wit, and the dedication to cutting through the usual bullshit. Wanna-be gonzo schtick I'm not so excited by; clear, fearless, honest voices for the win! Drug references optional. Your suggestions most welcome. I don't have access to any North American or European print publications, so, for me at least, I'd prefer writers whose work I can get to online.

Thanks!

Seeking Gonzo journalism blogs

I've been reading a lot of Hunter S. Thompson lately, and have become addicted to his "Gonzo journalism". Can anyone reccomend any weblogs, online zines or young authors that display that kind of brazen, muckraking writing style?
